What does 3-(Methylthio)hexan-1-ol smell like?

Green vegetable sulfide with an onion-garlic bite and a wasabi-like, faintly metallic edge; in dilution a rounded passion fruit and geranium-green facet comes forward. Far softer and more forgiving to dose than the 3-mercaptohexanol thiols, used to green up tropical and cassis accords.

Every regulatory join - IFRA, GHS, allergens - is by CAS number, and a material can supply one through its constituents as well as its own row, so of the 569 materials carrying no CAS number the 244 without a constituent table are the ones that return "nothing known" rather than "nothing applies". The blotter hours are sourced rather than measured by us, and the app labels every one of them an estimate. There is no physical chemistry on a row: no molecular weight, no vapour pressure, no boiling point. The longer answer, or the whole catalog counted.
